In March 1912, Pádraig Pearse founded this weekly Irish language political journal. Its purpose was to ‘advocate the political independence of Ireland’. With only a limited circulation, 'An Barr Buadh' only ran to eleven issues and had only four pages. Regular contributors included Pearse himself, Brian O’Higgins, Éamonn Ceannt, Thomas Mac Donnell, Desmond Ryan, Cathal Brugha, The O’Rahilly and Peadar Kearney. The articles focused almost exclusively on political issues and paper rarely dealt with social or economic matters. The first page of the bound volume is annotated with the manuscript signature of Tomás de Roíste, the noted Gaelic scholar.
